A M, thank you so much for the positive feedback!
Hi Jeff. I went through your videos before my G & L interview that happened today. The points that you mentioned were really helpful and helped me articulate my responses in a much better way than I had imagined. Thank you so much for making these videos !

Hi Jeff,
Again writing here as a confirmation that I have cleared GCA round. I follow up today after a week, and within half an hour got an update with invite for the final interview round.
I can't thank you enough.
Googliness and leadership interview will be the final round in my process.
Your guidance, thoughts and insights would be really helpful. Thanks 🙌
Hi Jeff, I just wanted to let you know that your videos have been so pivotal in my Google interviews. While I failed my interviews for the first role, I managed to ace them the second time and today I managed to land a role within their Trust and Safety team! Just wanted to say a big thank you for sharing all these useful tips in all your videos, from interview prep to negotiation! Keep rocking on!
Kah Han Tan, WOOHOO, AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Good luck at Google 😁
@kahhantan hey man, congratulations on being selected in Google. I have an interview round coming up this week, for same team (Trust and Safety)
Could you please help me out by guiding me about the Interview process and the level.?
Would help me a lot!
Jeff, I want to thank you for all the content that you have put up and continue to put up here. I followed your videos closely and it helped me develop a strategy for my interviews, and owing to the same I received a job offer from Google! Thank you so very much, I wouldn't have been able to do it without you! You are the OG Google interview guru, hands down!
People, please listen to this guy and you will definitely nail your interviews at Google!
Vishakha, amazing news, I am so happy for you and so happy to have been a small part of the journey, good luck!!!
Thanks for sharing
Very useful and helpful. Thank you Jeff for sharing.
Sumesh, thank you, I am glad this video helped!
Hey Jeff, I have had my Googliness round yesterday and I had binge watched your videos to prepare myself for it. The result is still awaited, and I am keeping my fingers crossed for that.
But I'd like to thank you for your videos, they provided the tactic to handle any behavioural question.
Yogesh, thank you for the positive feedback and keep us posted on the results!
Thank you Jeff!! This is amazing!
George Li, thank you for the positive feedback!
Hi Jeff! Your videos have been super helpful! Thanks for your content!
Tina, glad to help!
This is wonderful! Thank you!
Daniel, so glad this video helped!
Thanks Jeff for very structured videos. I learned alot from your tips and applied to the interviews. I got the offer !! Wishing you good health and happiness !
Phuong, AMAZING, CONGRATS!!!!!! I wish you the best of luck on your Google journey!
This is so helpful. I had a question, what is the feedback process at Google in case if you are not selected for a role?
Watching this as I prepare for my final round of interviews at Google in 3 days. Trying to take notes on Googleyness, Leadership, Role Related Knowledge, and Cognitive Ability. Wish me luck!
GOOD LUCK!!
How'd it go man?
Okay, what’s interesting is that I found I’m genuinely almost all of these qualities. It makes me happy to know how far I’ve come personal growth wise. I’m feeling truly excited and optimistic after this video. I’m not applying for Google rather looking into other opportunities, and just so happened to stumble upon this video. Thankful and appreciative of You Jeff! Keep up the great work!
Victoria, thanks for the positive feedback!
Hey thanks for this
Thank you Jeff all your videos have been a god sent ❤️ I’m forever grateful
charissahoo, thank you! This means a lot from someone with such a big YT following!! 🙃
Thank you very much! I will have my interview soon and I really hope I will be accepted. This video was very helpful and made me even more excited to work at Google.
Good luck!!
Hey Jeff! You videos have been SO helpful in helping me prepare my interview with Google. I swear I watched 15 videos in the span of a week. And I just received an offer from Google 2 days ago! It's been quite a dream come true :) Thank you for so much for the amazing content! You are really helping a lot of folks here who wanna get into big tech!
Life Of Osky, CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!! I wish you the best of luck at Google, don't forget to negotiate!
Hi, Jeff!
Thanks a lot for the videos, they are all very helpful! I'm going through them as I prepare for my 4 interviews (two role-related ones, leadership/googleyness, and the scary GCA :D), taking notes and organizing my thoughts. I wanted to ask: During a leadership and Googleyness interview, do they give scenarios and ask how you would handle them or they just ask you to give examples of things you already did?
Thank you! Love the hat btw :D
Graci, thanks for the positive feedback! In the Googleyness and leadership interview you are most likely going to get a mix of behavioral questions and some open-ended. I have heard of candidates getting all behavioral, but be prepared for anything. Most Google interviews will have at least one open-ended question. Good luck!
Hey Jeff, I'm preparing for an interview with Google and found your video really helpful! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us :)
Ricardo, thanks, I really hope this video helps people get a better grasp on this tricky topic!
did you get the job?
@@brubrushanghai The process is still ongoing, but I passed the phone interviews :)
now did u get the job ? 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 All the best
Did you get the job?
Hey Jeff,
Thank you for creating these videos! I recently got an offer from google as L4 in google cloud team and your videos have really helped me throughout the interview process.
Amazing content and well explained.
Thank you for all the great work!😀
Dhruval, AMAZING, CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!! 😬
Thanks a ton, Jeff. Simply enlightening!
A K Shiwakoti, thank you so much for your positive feedback!
Mahalo NUI (TYSM) for sharing all of your experience and knowledge to help others like me through the interview process. I never actually thought I'd be good enough to even be seen by Google, let alone be contacted by a recruiter just recently; that alone was a HUGE accomplishment for me! I've been doing a bunch of prep and research so I can try to be as prepped as possible before any interview. Anyway, just wanted to send my thanks for all of your great content and fingers crossed, I land something in the end. From my small island view here in Hawai'i to an opportunity to work at Google would be a dream come true!
Pua, GOOD LUCK!!! I have been fortunate enough to live on both Oahu and Maui, hopefully when you get the job they let you work remote 😬
Great video, thank you so much Jeff (and great hat too lol)!
Zee, so glad this video helped! Yup, the hat was a last minute decision, but for this type of video I thought it would be fun!
very helpful and amazing the tips . thanks Jeff. :)
Justin, thank you so much for the positive feedback!
THANK YOU for such amazing content Jeff. I watched several of your videos, especially for the CGA and G&L interviews and I nailed them thanks to you! I wanted to thank you personally as I got hired and will officially join Google soon!! YEAH! 🙏
Homer, AMAZING, CONGRATS!!!!!!!! Good luck!!! 😬
Thank you so much.
Mauricio, you are welcome, thanks for watching!
Thank you Jeff ❤ I watched many of your videos while preparing my interviews for Google, and I got in. Yay me! And now I am following the tech interview training program and I recognized your voice on the online modules🤣
Javier, first off, CONGRATS!!!!!!!! And, that is awesome, my voice is still being heard in trainings at Google, very cool 😁
Thank you for this! Super informative..
laneyj, you are so welcome, glad it helped!
Thank you Jeff for your insightful videos. I love them all and they are super helpful as I am getting for my Google Interview.
Follow your Dreams with Farinaz, thank you and good luck!
I'm a university career coach who used the info in this video to help a student prepare for her upcoming Google interview. It's a great complement to the other information that Google provides to applicants. Thanks!
Marlene, thank you so much for the positive feedback. I sent you a note on LinkedIn, hoping to hear back from you, thanks!
Nice vid! I think something that could really improve on this would be to give a mock interview example, perhaps with a less good way to answer a question, and then a better way. This might lower the level of abstractness of the Googleyness description and suggestive pointers you were giving
Daniel, thanks for your feedback! Googlyeness is extremely abstract because it is something that shows up in every answer. But I like the idea of presenting a bad vs good example, thank you for the advice!
Hi Jeff, like many other viewers of your channel, I watched your videos hundreds of times (if not more!) over last 2 months in preparation for my interview. And today I got an offer from Google. I wanted to thank you for your content and your channel! I really appreciate it!!🙏🙏😊
Zeyu, AWESOME, CONGRATS!!!!!!!!! Good luck at Google!! 😬
Hey Jeff, Thanks for the wonderful video, I am very glad that I have watched your video before my interview. it is scheduled in the next week.
Thamaraiselvam T, I am so glad you found this video helpful, good luck!
Wow - check, check, check - I’ve never heard about the real culture at Google. It’s gotta be a fantastic place to work; to be challenged, supported, and grow! 🤩
Zakery, yes, it can be a great environment, I highly recommend it 😬
i have a phone screening next week and a mock screening with a current employee tomorrow! i am so much more confident after watching your video! Thanks Jeff!!
Paola Miano, amazing, good luck!!
@@jeffhsipepi Thanks Jeff! I am definitely watching all your videos today in preparation of the mock interview. I will let you know how it goes :)
@@jeffhsipepi Jeff i watched your "tell me about yourself" video before the mock interview and what do you know.. that's all we talked about. You're great!! Thanks again, I'm hoping you go live again soon before my actual screening with the recruiter

Best of luck
Sara, good luck!!
All the best :)
Thanks a lot, your content is awesome!
Paul, thank you for the positive feedback!
Well done!
Renee, glad you found this video useful!
Hi Jeff, thank you for this very informative video. Do you think that these are examples of Googleyness that applicants have the opportunity to demonstrate in their general but not so much in the role-specific interviews?
Dionysia, great question, I want you to focus on bringing up these concepts in every interview, in every answer. Not all of them of course, but be thinking about how you can highlight your Googleyness as much as possible! Thanks!
@@jeffhsipepi thank you for your reply! Yes I see what you mean! Sometimes I feel it gets so overwhelming thinking of all the different things I need to demonstrate (apart from the actual answer) combined with the inevitable stress that comes with an interview process!
@@DionysiaSaras Absolutely, the best two pieces of advice I can give anyone, is to spend as much time as possible preparing and practice with another human being! 😀
Thank you Jeff sipe for the insightful videos. I gave the interview in February and Now working as an Apprentice at Google India. Thank you once again for making there videos and helping in the process
Kavita, AMAZING, CONGRATS!!!!!!!!
Hey Jeff
Thank you so much, this video helped my dad land a job at google.
10v, both you and your Dad, AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!! 😬
Watching the videos in hopes i get into google. There currently arent any openings in Texas or Houston, but once there is i will hopefully be getting a call for an interview. Recently lost my job due to scheduling so im in a rut, but after getting a call and hearing how google works with their interviewing i really am excited! Im just rambling but thanks for making these videos!
Vega Main, hoping for the best for you, I hope positions open up for you soon!
@@jeffhsipepi thank you very much!!
Hi Jeff,thank you for your informative videos on Google interview, I’m preparing for an international growth consultant role at Google, how should I prepare?
林逸欣, this role is all about building strong partnerships so make sure to highlight great examples of how you have both built and fostered great relationships. On the open-ended side, lean collaborative, focus in on really understanding the customer and how you can set them up for success. Good luck!
Hi Jeff! Great, great video. Thanks for the amazing series of videos. I am prepping for my Program Manager interview at Google. I have a quick question - Do you think it's a good idea to ask for the interviewer's feedback at the end of the interview? Thanks!
Akshay, good question, I do not recommend taking this approach. A better question is, "Sue, is there anything I can clarify from any of my answers, anything else that I can share with you that will you determine I am the right fit for the role?" Good luck!
Thanks, Jeff! That helps. Keep up the great work. Hope I return back to this comment with an offer from Google! Cheers!
Hi Jeff!! Thanks for the great content. You're truly amazing. A quick question...Is there any chance for a student from science background to be selected for business job?? I'm a biotechnology undergrad but I'm interested to work with POPS team...
P, of course, for any position at any company where your background does not 100% align, the first step is to volunteer, take on an internship, take an entry level role in that industry and grow your career in that space. At a minimum you want to build some of the skills they are looking for in POPS and then start to try and work your way into Google. I hope this helps! Thanks
@@jeffhsipepi Thank you so much for the words, Jeff!! 🙂
Thanks 😊👍
Tatjana, glad this content helped!
great interviewing for googleyness but I have a question about positivity. it seems kinda scary the way you describe it. Because it seems like that can create a culture of false positivity. It's actually detrimental to mental health when a person is stressed and troubled to not be able to express that. Also when we trade words like problems to opportunities, it is very troubling to me because now we lose what the original idea is. Indicating something is a problem indicates that it's need of focus and urgency to it. An opportunity makes it seem not urgent and something that can be ignored. And if it is recognized that people are just changing up the word problem to opportunity, then the same idea still comes across and now the changing of those words don't inspire positivity, but even more negative feelings because now this facade adds another barrier between the interpersonal interactions.
youtube_myspace_and_i_will_google_your_yahoo, I sincerely appreciate your comment and is something the audience should take into consideration when answering questions, thanks!
I do agree with this post to a certain extent. I don't think it's mentally healthy to promote false positivity at the workplace just to look professional and fit in.
But I think the key message in this video is more about positive mindset than positive words. Having a positive mindset allows you to see that there can be a silver lining in any situation. The important thing isn't to avoid using words like "problem" or "mistake", but to not be hung up on them, accepting the negatives and thinking of ways to make the best out of the situation.
When you start thinking this way about life in general, it naturally promotes a healthier mindset and gives you a more positive outlook on life.
So basically it sounds like Google wants healthy minded people :)
High EQ : for some of us it is intrinsic to our personality and for others it may have to be developed.
Pete, yes, and I think we can always be working on/developing our EQ
@@jeffhsipepi just keep in mind you can still be a sociopath and have high EQ. This means they can leverage their understanding of others feelings to their advantage.
Wonderful content!
Appsy Cutir, thanks!
Thank you for your help!!! I got the job at Google, still can’t believe it lol
Zafar, AMAZING!!! Congrats!
What an awesome content!! Enjoyed your video Jeff 😃👍 thanks a lot for sharing such great insights!
Manisha, thank you 🙃
@@jeffhsipepi I had my interviews yesterday so your video came in very handy and right on time!!! I was much more prepared then to answer all their questions in the G&L round, and I did fairly well. Since this was my very first experience being interviewed by Google so I had a ton of questions popping up in my head 😊 and your video calmed me down!! So thanks for that! And what you shared was absolutely true....they wanted to know the real me and I was very comfortable during all the interviews. Now starts the waiting game 😃
Jeff - thanks for all you do. This channel is GOLD. One question - i am interviewing for Business Strategy Intelligence Lead - any pointers that you could imagine that might be helpful? Thanks
Ayush, for these roles make sure that your really demonstrate how drive results through data and don't forget to have a strong collaboration lens in your answers, good luck!
Jeff im onto tech part! Thanks for your guidance 100% on point. I'll be back for an update.
Lacy, amazing, please keep us posted!
Welcome sir
Great videos Jeff! Thanks for putting this out there. I've got my first call with a recruiter at Google, interviewing for a Cloud Sales role. In the email sent across, the recruiter mentioned he'd like to chat more about my experience. Going through a bunch of your videos on GCA, RRK, Leadership, Googleyness, I'm just wondering what exactly should I expect with the first recruiter screening interview? Thanks!
Aanchal, this conversation will be super casual. They will be looking for your communication skills and assessing role alignment. Nothing to really prepare, just going in with a positive and friendly attitude is super important. Good luck!
Wow thanks Jeff ❤️
Great video,thx!
@benudek, thanks, an oldie, but goodie!
Hi Jeff, I came across your amazing and super helpful channel today.
I am based in India, and interviewed for a role at Google about four months back. The recruiter informed me that the feedback has been positive and asked me about salary expectations as well. All this was 3.5 months back, and since then I haven't heard anything. The recruiter has been really kind and is responding to my queries, saying that the position is still open, but is not able to give me a time on when I can expect to hear back.
How long can it take for Google to finalise the candidate? Would be really grateful to get any input on this.
Thanks a lot.
Deepika, this is a really interesting scenario. I think it's time to ask for a little more clarity from your Recruiter. Am I still be considered? What is holding you/team from moving forward, is it my interview feedback? Is it common for candidates to stay in process for this amount of time without moving forward/being rejected. Simply state that since you are outside the organization, you are trying to get more clarity on your situation. And I recommend trying to get a competing offer to see if this makes them move or not.
@@jeffhsipepi Hi Jeff, many thanks for your insightful response. They've said that this is not common, I am still being considered. According to them what is taking time is that my manager is based in London, and I am in India, and also I was the first candidate interviewed for the role. I'll try and get in touch with the recruiter again.
I guess, what I can do is try and get a competing offer and see if it makes them move or not.
Thanks a lot again. Wish you a good day and good week. :)
Hi Jeff,
Love your videos, hope they'll help me being best prepared.
Just to clarify, when you talk about the Googleyness Concepts, you mention High EQ. Is my assumption right that you actually mean high IQ? Am I missing an abbreviation or concept?
Thanks for clarifying!
Tim
Tim, I meant EQ 🙃, EQ is the abbreviation for Emotional Intelligence or Emotional Quotient often referred to as EQ.
Jeff do you have an example about an open-ended question for problem solving?
Tomas, yes, I created a whole series of videos focused on open-ended questions and some have screen shares where I break down how to answer these types of questions, check it out :) - czcams.com/video/BxKROD5RC_0/video.html

Hey Teetta. How long did your googleyness interview continue for ? Mine was just 25 minutes 🤭
@@charuarora291 Hi! Mine lasted about 40 mins, I can't really remember now but good luck! 🙂
Thanks for your reply Teetta, really appreciate it 😀
Hi Jeff! Thank you so much for creating such great content! I just finished my google onsite interview for an account manager position and it has been 3 weeks that I didn't hear back. So last week I followed up to the recruiter and she said they are still reviewing my application. What does that mean? Do you think my chance is slim due to the long wait time and I should move on? Thanks!
Ningyue, continue to check in and stay positive, good luck!
@@jeffhsipepi Hi Jeff, Thanks for your reply! The recruiter finally reached out to me a month after onsite to arrange another coffee chat interview for me with a one of the teammates(Account manager) in GCS team. Would you like to share some tips in preparing for this round(Hope it's the final round) or recommend any of your related videos? Thank you so much!!
D.) Figure out how many airplanes are over a country's airspace at any given time.
(The tip is, "Well, we've only had flight for around 117 years. Given this is an edge case, we'll review for deprecation as 99.999% of the time the product performs to the contract spec and SLA.")
Requiem for a Meme, so I love this way of looking at the question, sometimes our original thought is critical to showing our problem solving skills. A great question to this question is, can you tell me what year it is, is it this year, last year during COVID, or 1776? An important item for these estimation questions is edge cases and we literally lived through one last year and continue to live through one this year. We would also definitely want to clarify the country, what type of airplane, all airplanes, private jets, military planes, etc.
@@jeffhsipepi The company I'm working at is in the "next phase", consolidating legacy stacks into a marketplace-type product. And this is my first question whenever scoping something for a client, or working on an understandably tough QoS -- e.g. our talented engineers are often the ones who've been with the company(s) long enough to know old codebases, often multiple refactors ago in comparison to new hires. IMHO, allocating enough resources to confidently support legacy stacks while maintaining an aggressive roadmap is paramount -- though, I do work with binary logs and not so "sexy" products, so I try not to come across as the stody old dinosaur in the room (despite being the youngest in the room). 😅
My first answer to this question is usually... "Well, is there an API? We can just try deduplicating as many data sets as possible." Probs wouldn't work too well for a defense contract application tho, lol.
@@requiemforameme1 but it is a good question!!
Hi Jeff,
Well well done.
Not sure if I understood you right but in 7:25 you are explaining ambiguity (at least that is my understanding) but the word displayed is "amguity"
Is there any mistake here or is it the opportunity to improve ;)
Lobuzer85, opportunity to improve 🙃
love it
Sanjay, glad you found this video helpful!
Hi can you just make a video for Interview questions on ITRM for google
Pooja, I take all requests for video concepts seriously and will definitely add this to my list. I believe you are referring to the ITRP program? Thanks!
It matters everywhere ! Sure does I love the philosophy because its true !
Robo, awesome 😬
All this is extremely important but main thing is Common Sense.. right 👍
Miguel, common sense always plays a significant role in every interview! So much of what I focus on is not the interview itself, but basic human psychology. So yes, keeping it simple helps!
Hi Jeff! Thank you for this video. Found it super helpful! Do you have any tips to prepare or offer coaching for a position like data center tech role? Thanks again!!
_JustMoriiTV, I have coached a number of DC Techs, be ready for questions regarding problem solving and troubleshooting, those are going to be the most critical areas, and knowing when to escalate as well
Enlightening explanation, renewed my appreciation about Google company culture and fundamentals. Thanks!
Mário, I am glad to hear it! The layoffs have been tough and not everything was handled perfectly, but its core, Google is still a great organization.
Ahh man I've just had a recruiter reach out to me from Google. Panicking a bit. Don't want to blow my interview.
econ001, this is good news! One of the first things you can ask the Recruiter is the urgency to fill the positon. Specifically, you can tell them, I am hoping to get some time to prepare, if I scheduled my first interview a couple of weeks from now, is that okay? Your Recruiter will let you know that item. The good news is you are starting the process, woohoo!
@@jeffhsipepi Thanks Jeff. Full disclosure this will be my 3rd time interviewing with them over the past 5 years, hence why I don't want to blow it. It's for a Data Center position, so some of the interview requirements my be different from a coder or service manager. I still remember most of my questions were situational based, but things may have changed since I last interviewed about 2 years ago. Thanks for the advice.
@@eon001, good luck!! You should get a mix of behavioral and open-ended.
Is there an age bar to apply at Google? Do they consider only very young people for interviews? What about mid career professionals who want to start over?
@blossomingplum, yup, all ages considered! Does ageism exist in all companies, yup, it does, but don't let that stop you. If you are starting over and want to interview for a more entry level role, make sure your skills align with that role, you should be considered as long as you meet most of the qualifications. Good luck!
Hey Jeff, I am class XII student from India, may you please guide me how can I join Google ? What courses should I follow ??
1689 Anubhav Harsh Sinha, the best courses are going to be those that are specific to your job type and experience level, but I can tell you that most courses will help. In combination with courses, really work on your interview skills and spend time practicing with others. I know this high level, I hope it helps!
Thanks a lot Jeff 😊😊😊..... You are way too kind 👍🏻
Love from India ❤️

Hello Jeff, I hope you are doing good. can you please help answering one question. i have been recently interviewed at google and recruiter reached out to me and mentioned they are in final review process. what does it mean any thoughts ?
IB, ask you Recruiter, this could mean being compared to others, going to HC, moving to comp review. In this process if there is ambiguity, ask your Recruiter for more clarity because oftentimes they are not communicating it clearly, good luck!
@@jeffhsipepi Thanks for your response. I heard from my recruiter yesterday that she has positive news !! And call has been scheduled for half an hour. Hope i hear that i am being hired. will update here once i hear from recruiter. Wish me all the best.
Thank you !!!
Does Google management need these qualities too?
ivan200804, YES!!!
Hi Jeff I had Google virtual interview on 31 January until now I didn’t hear from the recruiter it it’s for data center manager is it normal
Asmaa, after 5 business days, always follow up, they should have touched base with you at this point, but just take control and reach out, good luck!
Your content is AMAZING and I am going to send it to all my friends. Please help me with something -- I have an upcoming "cloud engineer" interview. Do you offer coaching for that?

Does Google looks 10th mark of candidate please sir tell me I request to you
D Hgg, I am unsure because this does not apply in the US. Is it common for companies to factor in this item?
i hv google interview for business system analyst,,pls help
Aadkhu, one of the best ways to prepare and anticipate questions is to do a deep dive into the job description, I did two videos to help - czcams.com/video/WJTOrhdciH4/video.html and czcams.com/video/j1I6hbIUy_U/video.html. Watch these videos and practice! Good luck!
How long does a Googliness interview last? Mine lasted just 30 mins
Rajesh, they should last 45 minutes. I am getting a lot of feedback of interviews being cut short these days, but remember, you might have crushed it in those 30 minutes, so don't worry too much about the length of time. Good luck!!
Mine lasted 40minutes
@@vickyprakas thank you for letting us know, let's keep tracking this item!!
@jeff H Sipe.
My Googlyeyness interview was today, ended in 30 minutes. Not sure what that means. 🥲
I am interviewing for Data center Ops Program manager role.
I'd love to meet you in person someday
Kelvin, right back at yah!
What is the word "smees" ?
Lihi, SME's stands for subject matter experts. And this a good reminder not to use abbreviations during an interview because your interviewer will not always know what you are talking about. Thanks for the question!
@@jeffhsipepi Thank you!
Leaving a bar code sticker attached under the brim of one's hat will cause a polite lunch interview failure.
Brad, haha, yup, epic fail on my end! I hope the video helped!
I passed the recruiter stage and will be having 3 interviews for a GCP sales role. 1) knowledge on GCP and competitive landscape 2) GCA 3) Googlyness.
I've seen a few of your videos on #3 but do you have any videos on #1 and #2 specifically for GCP Sales roles? Thank you!!
Katie, I have not done a video for FSR's, but I did one for SE's and CE's that might help -czcams.com/video/GtEUL3xbAZ8/video.html
problem = opportunity? Cringe. And people not responding unless it's spun positively: that's acceptable behavior at google? Would you not respond to an upset customer?
W?O9pZ;E4I:; thank you for your comment, and let me clarify. At Google, they are looking for how you see opportunities even when something is challenging. So, using your upset customer example, this is an opportunity to turn the customer from upset to happy by seeing it as an opportunity to create a better experience. All negative moments can be treated as opportunities if learn from them and try to improve. I hope this helps!
What I mean is, even if someone's rude, you respond but, maybe ask them or bring it up to a manager, that they could be nicer. Ignoring a problem because it was called a problem? That's really bizarre and seems cult-like, quite frankly. If someone can't handle the word "problem", I mean... that's not normal; they need to see a therapist or something. Seriously.
Maybe you were just making an example and I'm taking it too literally.
@@heh2k I appreciate your comments, we want to recognize situations for what they are, as an opportunity to learn and grow. So this is more of a philosophical item than a Google item. The specific reason for removing the word problem from an interview at any company is because it is a negative word, and removing negative words during an interview anywhere will yield greater success. I hope this helps.
1.25x speed 👍
megustaelchilate, absolutely!! I would say even faster, I am low and slow, you can watch me on 2x speed! I consume almost all my learning on 2X, I think it is a great way to take in more data, and most of the time it is not too fast. Speed me up!!!
@@jeffhsipepi thanks for the tip, I won't be able to process the info properly at 2x speed 🤪, I'm not a native English speaker. Thanks for the tips
@@JorgeVallecillo Happy to have you as part of the community, thanks for watching!
Wow. I thought it very concerning that on one hand you let interviewers know that being political in any response could be detrimental to their chances of getting hired but then state that Google is a very liberal company.
Did no one else pick up on this? So it is OK for google to express how liberal they are but the rest of us have to be quiet about it. If Google were an all inclusive company they should welcome all walks of life AND political views and commentary no matter the platform, even during the interview process. This shows engagement and caring about our country no matter what your position may be.
Mark, I understand what you are saying. The challenge is that interviews are conducted by humans and humans have bias, both conscious and unconscious. Interviews are about staying laser focused on the job you are interviewing for and keeping a very positive attitude. These are the items that typically, land you the job.
Sounds like I might be working with a bunch of weirdos.
Edward, thank you for your comment because you bring up a good point. Culture can oftentimes be critical to whether we have success/would enjoy working in a certain environment. And Google's culture is not for everyone. I truly believe that most people would love working there, but it is important to do your research and make sure it is a fit for you!
@@jeffhsipepi actually just had my interview and they were all pleasant people. I spoke out of turn. Thanks for all you do too.
@@edwarda2033 Let us know the results!
@@jeffhsipepi just got word, no dice. Your vids were very helpful though.
@@edwarda2033 thank you so much for letting us know. I am sorry the result was not as expected, but keep trying, you will have another chance.
